2026 NFL Predictions

I do not even want to think about how I did last year. My picks were pretty…bad. Funny enough, if you read back on what I wrote though, I was right about some teams challenging for the division (I just envisioned it a year later, oops).

This year, I will do better. Maybe.

EAST	NORTH	SOUTH	WEST
Bills	Steelers	Texans	Chargers
Patriots	Bengals	Jaguars	Broncos
Jets	Ravens	Colts	Raiders
Dophins	Browns	Titans	Chiefs

EAST	NORTH	SOUTH	WEST
Commanders	Lions	Falcons	Rams
Eagles	Packers	Saints	Seahawks
Cowboys	Bears	Buccaneers	49ers
Giants	Vikings	Panthers	Cardinals

AFC Seeds: (1) Chargers, (2) Texans, (3) Steelers, (4) Bills, (5) Patriots, (6) Broncos, (7) Jaguars
NFC Seeds: (1) Rams, (2) Lions, (3) Commanders, (4) Falcons, (5) Seahawks, (6) Eagles, (7) Packers
AFC Wildcard Round: Chargers BYE, Texans over Jaguars, Steelers over Broncos, Patriots over Bills
NFC Wildcard Round: Rams BYE, Packers over Lions, Commanders over Eagles, Seahawks over Falcons
AFC Divisional Round: Patriots over Chargers, Steelers over Texans
NFC Divisional Round: Rams over Packers, Commanders over Seahawks
AFC Championship Game: Steelers over Patriots
NFC Championship Game: Commanders over Rams
SUPER BOWL: Steelers over Commanders

Yep, I am going with a total homer pick this year. If this would be the Super Bowl matchup, I have a ton of friends who would be happy. If you want some deep analysis, well you came to the wrong place. But, I think the Steelers defense is still good enough to keep them in the hunt, plus the offense should be better (hopefully). So maybe…they could make a run this year. Washington? Well, they underperformed last year, and I think people are probably writing them off…but they were really good two years ago, so maybe they can recapture that magic.
